Life is for the Living

People rarely leave their homes and all they know behind them to start a new life in a new country without a very good reason. In this episode we learn what home was like for all of our guests and why they (or their parents) felt they had to go. 

Producer Marco Burlo and I sit down for a chat about the show: what we learned from this season and what is coming in the next season. Also, an outtake real where you'll find  how swearing goes into making a podcast and how bad I am at accents(really, really bad). Plus, bonus Calliope apparence.  Travel Light by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https:/...

What makes us sad? What makes us happy? These are the questions I pose to our guests in this episode.

As all of our five guests are members, ex-members, or attenders of Quaker Meeting, I ask them what drew them to Quakerism, why the ex-members left, and their thoughts on spirituality and God in general.
